Thanks for actually discussing.

It’s my understanding that the earnings of the hyper wealthy are derived not through “traditional wages”, but instead loans backed by stock, business entities, etc.

So right out the gate we aren’t hunting the biggest fish: taxation of the hyper wealthy such that they pay their fair share.

Next, I believe that such a system would be contorted to limit the potential of those at the bottom of the ladder. If we hope to improve the lot of those folks, the conversation should folks on minimum wages, and employment and safety protections
